I just don't know why exactly but blockbuster disaster movies are what I'm craving at this moment. Maybe the ongoing pandemic has a lot to do with it, but anyways, I found #Alive a highly entertaining zombie action thriller. It is the perfect movie you need to see if a real-life pandemic alone is not enough to convince you to quarantine yourself.

The film wastes not a second in jumping to the conflict and the result is non-stop action. One of the best things about the film is its action sequences: all choreographed well with a lingering sense of vulnerability that makes them more enjoyable. Yoo Ah-in and Park Shin-hye are the only leading actors, and both of them deliver fabulous performances. While there's not enough detailing of the zombie disaster going on, it's just plausible because then it puts you in the protagonist's shoes: you too know nothing, except there's lots and lots of zombies out there and the only way to survive is by killing.

Further, the limited setting is another cherry on the top. #Alive just never runs out of entertainment and goes on to deliver endless fun, replete with action, drama, horror and suspense. It might not be the greatest zombie film ever made, but pretty sure joins my list of some of the best ones to date. I'll recommend you not to expect a complex plot: just expect some nice performances, character moments and lots of breathtaking zombie action.
